I am currently trying to upgrade my Rom from the standard O2 version to the XDA-DEV Special Edition.
I have done this many times before on other XDA 2i's however this one doesn't seem to like communicating. Activesync with syncronise all folders and connect quite happily however when i try to run the Special edition Rom setup MS-DOS box appears verify version and reports unknown internal error. then when the setup software starts it verifies your system requirments, you select next and then it reports the following in a GUI Box.
Cannot execute the remote communication program.
Please make sure that the USB/Serial cable is connected properly.
To try and get arount this i have put the XDA in Bootloader mode and then run setup but still comes back with the same error.
Any help or ideas would be appreciated
ROM Version 1.11.00 WWE
ROM Date 01/27/05
RADIO Version 1.00.00
PROTOCOL Version 1337.39
ExtROM Version 1.11.171 WWE
XDA-DEV Special Edition is a rather old rom only! for wallaby devices
Thats weird as i have had it running on a himalaya in the past. Is there a ready made upgrade rom for an XDA IIi available. Bored with the O2 one, to many restrictions.
then you are the first i ever heard about who have portet a rom from 1 pda device to another
Thaks for that, I have found one of PUGS with the O2 stuff stripped out.
See how it goes with that one.
Many Thanks

I have an AT&T Siemens SX56. I used the XDA-developers Special Edition ROM v1.2 to get my SIM Lock disabled. I have T-Mobile service and my T-Mobile SIM now works, hoooray!
However!, The version of Pocket PC on this ROM is not to my liking.
I went to siemens site and they offer the latest Windows Mobile 2003 for my device, however I can't use it becuase my ROM versions don't match.
IS there any way I can upgrade the latest Windows mobile 2003? What would be the recommended method?
My current SX56 info:
Rom Version: 3.17.03 ENG
Radio Version: A.33.02
Protocol Version: 1.3.3
Model No. says: PW10a1 (even though it says on the back PW10b1)
MS Pocket PC 3.0.12039 (build 11178)
Any help or advice would be appreciated. I scared to do anything for fear that using a ROM kitchen might toast my ROM
ANY advice on this would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks,
Brock
the rear sticker is THE right one .. your device is B and it works on 900/1900 MHz.
As long you don't touch the RSU part and you are using the SD method for ROM flashing, there is almost nothing can go wrong for using the kitchen for ROM cooking. I can't remember how many times I flashed my ROM
You can get more details by reading through this forum carefully.
Good luck
Hmm... So what version of ROM on this ROM kitchen website would be most recommended: http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/ ?
Also is there a reason why you are only allowed 3620kb of ROM space? I thought my device had 32MB?
All I would have to do is create the ROM on that site save it as a .exe and then it would do everything else?
Thank you for the quick reply!
I forgot to mention that I have the Wallaby Boot loader version 5.22, if that makes any difference.
I also was wondering if the newer radio versions make any difference on reception/clarity/availablity of a signal????
Another thing I was wondering about is... How come on this ROM kitchen website http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/ I have to e-mail information and await instuctions to proceed? Does he have to give me a special number that is generated to make the ROM I downloaded work w/ my IMEI or device?? Or is that totally not right???
Thanks again,

Not sure if this is going to be of any help but it worked for me after I got a similar Country Code Error while trying to install a new ROM
Darko3 suggested it in this very same forum.
It's a nuclear option and will leave your handset crispy fresh and new but that was fine for me.
After saving all files you ever want to see again to your PC, hold down the top power button and the reset button (as per a hard reset) AND push the direction key, in its central position. Your screen should go dark grey (indicating it's in the bootloader mode). This enables you to load on any ROM you like.
At least, that was my experience.
All's been plain sailing since.
Hope it works for you to, but be warned - don't do it unless you REALLY mean it as your machine's memory will be wiped clean as the day it was born!
ok. thanks wobblypocket. it's work on my xda. and successfully... thanks bro
I have a xda2i with the following info
ROM version 1.10.00 WWE
ROM date 12/24/04
radio version 1.00.00
protocol version 1337.39
ExtRom 1.10.124 WWE
I am looking a for a upgraded version if anyone can help... it would be great if there was a wa to get rid of the o2 custom stuff on the xda too i dont like that too much can anyone help
Acid
At the moment there are no updates for the XDA2i but there is rumours of one in the pipelines... if its true or not remains to be seen but we can only hope.
As for removing the customised crap just do a hard reset (you'll loose all your stuff) , press power + reset.
Then when its installing a box will appear asking "Personal" or "Corporate" user, choose the corporate option and enter the password "0506"
hi
at the moment the only newer rom from our factory rom is that of pda2k.. do a search for my posts and in there you will see where to get it and how to get past the country id error..
Danny-B- I didnt see the box will appear asking "Personal" or "Corporate" user it just says will customize my xda in 3 seconds and i cant do anything to stop it and i cant even uninstall the software it is linked into everything.. its really annoying and this o2 thing is just eating up memory and space... can you help

I have a xda2i with the following info

Are you sure you didnt miss it ?
Im sure it auto installs personal user if not selected within a certain time.
The best thing to do would be, Hard reset it, then just sit and watch it install till it gets to the choice point.
Another thing that might be slowing your device down can be the SD card if its over 512Mb , the XDA 2i sems to have a slight problem with them and slows everything down, well it does in my case anyway.

the firste tries I´ve got ERROR: wrong device, so I changed the devicetype from PH10 to PH10C like written on start-settings-deviceinformations...

.....
if I press UPGRADE the massage "don´t remove USB & power" appiers then a new screen with the status for the upgradeprocess....
BUT... after 20 sec. I always get ERROR 101 (connectionerror).
- any idea ?
The XDA2i does not support the leaked WM2005 it only works on the XDA 2
Although the devices look the same the internal hardware is different.
The XDA2i does not support the leaked WM2005
sad to hear that...
ok, thank you but do you know if it´s possible to get an upgrade in the future ?
do you know where the problem is? (Image ore Updatesoftware?)
???!!!
The problem is that the software (wm2005) has to be custom made to suit the hardware in the phone so ... HTC - the makers of the phone or O2 would have to "build" the software for the phone.
Its because all the correct drivers and such have to be correct for the device to function.
But you never know, it might be a possible upgrade in the future, youll just have to wait and see.
Upgrade for XDA2i
Ok, I´ve found an original Upgrade-Tool & the Rom-files from o2UK....
My next Problem is the Password to edit the nk.nbf to chage the Image...

Can somebody help me to findout the right password for the Rom-editor ?

Hello everyone.
I've found this site whilst i was looking for a Windows Mobile update for my Pocket PC.
First off all, i want to mention that i have a Wallaby PW10A1 ( The one in the attached picture seems is not this one, only similar ), i suppose since the seller in my country has changed the brand as it's own. It's running Windows Mobile 2002, which i don't like at all.
Do any of you guys can guide me
Where to find a ROM that'll work on my PPC? Whether WM2003 or WM5
List me what's to be done after getting ROM?
Can share other applications, if needed during this upgrade period?
Model Number: PW10A1
Processor: ARM SA1110
Speed: 206 Mhz
Current ROM: 3.20.03 ENG
Rom Date: 07/22/03
Radio Version: 3.25.00 ( What's this one? )
If there's anyone to help, i'ld be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

error. I've installed WM2003 Final 4.02.04 ENG QTEK at first. But due to using it for the first time, i've added some useless appz in the rom too. Now i've cleaned them but.. It's useless i can't update this time.
Any help?
BTW, i've downloaded NK.nb1 too instead of rom.exe... How will i use this?
Alright, active sync didn't work.
so i had to learn and use Flash Upgrading.
I've no problem at that area now, except
what are radio stack versions, i mean differences.
and which shoudl i install for mine? for a better one
Hey,
I'm pretty new at this, so I'll explain how i've gotten in to this.
1. Bought a HTC tytn UK and I wanted it in dutch
2. Since I couldn't find an original rom i flashed it to the dutch rom from shap's (wich is actually great)
3. Then i did find an original rom but wasn't able to flash it so i used "HTC Hermes SIM & CID Unlock - v3a"
4. The original dutch rom works fine now, except when i go to device info
Rom version: empty
Rom date: empty
Radio version: empty
Protocol version: empty
CPU: 8 squars
speed: 6 squarsBe...
No imei number and so on.
Can someone please help me, maybe in the future when i try to sell the phone this must be ok.
Thx a lot to all xda developers here !!!
edit: original bootloader and ipl were: SPL-2.05 IPL-1.04 (maybe it has something to do with that?)

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1) you need to flash HardSPL
2) make sure you have flashed a new radio after using the CID/SIM unlocker, due to the fact that it downgrades it to a very old radio for it to work.
I had this issue when I tried a version of HTC Home Customizer that I found somewhere on the net.
To make it all come back, I had to hard reset, and not reinstall the program that caused it. I'm not sure if any other programs could cause that issue, or why it was caused.
I've flashed my device to HardSPL. now wich radio rom should I use?
I've found several radio rom but I don't have a clue wich one is best for me (Belgium, Mobistar)
flash a shipped ROM from here, there is a dutch HTC from there. get to boot loader, pressing the ok on the left, power on right, and stick stylus in at the same time. plug it to active sync, and run the exe file from the WM 6 rom upgrade/downgrade.
